Although the title of the work is not written on the original wooden box, this vase is identified as "Tsuru no Mai" (Dance of the Cranes), a well-known Koransha series featuring elegant flying cranes against a rich emerald-green background. The vase is decorated with graceful flying cranes (Hikaku) rendered in brilliant gold and white over a deep, glossy emerald-green gradient glaze. The contrast between the luminous gold, pure white porcelain, and the vibrant green creates a refined and timeless design, characteristic of Koransha's finest porcelain. The set is complete with its original signed wooden storage box (tomobako), the original brochure, and the manufacturer's card. All accessories are present, and the overall condition is excellent. In Japanese culture, cranes have long symbolized longevity, happiness, prosperity, and good fortune. For this reason, this vase is not only an outstanding decorative work of art for a tokonoma alcove or entrance hall, but also a meaningful gift for milestone celebrations such as a 60th birthday (Kanreki), 70th birthday (Koki), housewarmings, or other special occasions.
